TGIF like Whoa

Yessss I am blonde again and so happy about it. All is right in the world. Annd I got the job I wanted! Its been like pulling teeth to negotiate a good salary, but I think we've reached an agreement!?!?!?!?! Legally Blonde is moving up in the world!

Cheezin.

I love/hate her so much. She is such a spoiled B*tch, but she goes after what she wants. She doesn't really seem to have many friends...(her cousin or whatever that was crashing at her place?) and the ones she "has" don't like her very much. I almost feel bad. Then I see the clothes she can afford and how she might be the most condescending bimbo besides Ann Coulter...oh I digress.

Without sounding totally like a 5 year old....she's pretty. Her hair is my inspiration! (Her and LC of course.)

The City. Its totes my guilty pleasure these days. I can't wait til the Hills returns. I get so embarrassed by my completely immature obsession. What other 22 year old slithers into Best Buy, asks the trolls that work there (under my breath mind you) to direct me to where season 4 is awaiting me, in all its shiny, 4-disc glory. I then stroke the plastic wrapping muttering "Precious," before devoting the better part of my day to watching every minute. Oh, and did I mention lying to friends "oh, I'm super busy tonight...blah blah blah" so I have uninterrupted viewing. Do they have rehab for this? My supply is cut off after this season.....

Cute. I like Whit as a darker blonde. I also love this skirt. She balances this outfit well.

Whitney is stereotypically boring. I secretly like it though, only because its easy to replicate her style/ensembles with things already in my closet. Very "Recessionista"-esque.

Ew. No. Stick to the simple, Whit. There are no words for the wrongness of this. It looks like something my Grandma wears to Atlantic City...minus the fanny-pack.

Hey girl crush. You'll always be my #1. The shirt isn't a fav of mine but I'm drooling over that bag. MMMM, buttery Chanel goodness.

My Cherie Amour

I love black and white photography. My bff Anna (although currently on hiatus) is in art and photography classes and is always one with a camera. I vowed to take more pictures this year, but have really only increased for the blog. I get too afraid that I'll lose my camera if I take it out, but those are the moments I always wish I had captured. I'm planning a baller-status weekend of fun (details to come later) and hope I manage to catch some of the debauchery!! Above, the iconic Elizabeth Taylor.

Tragic figure/life and a medium sized bag of crazy, but no one can deny her coolness. Edie Segewick...I highly recommend Factory Girl.

Anna's attempt at an iconic photo for me....my shades are better.....

The sexiest woman that ever lived...Brigitte Bardot.

"Ever girl has this pic in their apartment..." -Mancandy unimpressed with my choice in art. What most men don't realize is that we see this as the embodiment of class. Holly Golightly is what we want to be...to grow up into a classy woman, but retain our wild spirit.

Work It...Do You Need a Glass of Wa-ter?

So I haven't done an outfit post in a while and decided today was as good as any!

Hotness

Somebody's got a case of the Mondays....

This best expresses how I feel right now...poor, overwhelmed and on edge. I blew a small fortune on my hair Saturday (although it is totes worth it!), had a super busy weekend, aannnd still haven't heard from my dream job which is sending me into panic attack mode. At least I have my shoes.....


Also the looming and shiteous reality that I have 8 weeks until I'm going to be in a bathing suit in 8 short weeks and have been majorly slacking at the gym is making me want to wire my mouth shut. On the bright side, I'm blonde again!!

Sick bathing suit. Where in the world can I find one like this?

My goal.

If this were the standard, life would be sooo much easier. Too bad, because now its like, "Why did I eat that cookie yesterday?"..."Why did I eat that cookie last year?" "I'm never eating goddam devil's cookies again...but they taste so good!"

So Fly.

I'd be happy with this. Alright...8 weeks til Memorial Day!! Summer hurry your ass up!
